Peralta goes the distance as the Brewers blank Cincinnati (AUDIO)

Heading into Tuesday’s game with the Cincinnati Reds, Milwaukee Brewer starting pitchers were in a 407-game stretch without a complete game. Yovani Gallardo was the last to toss all 9-innings back on April 5th of 2011.

Wily Peralta put a stop to that run as the Brewers blanked the Reds 2-0 at Miller Park. Peralta tossed a 3-hit shutout while striking out 6 and walking 4.

Ryan Braun returned to the lineup Tuesday night smashing a single to center in his first at-bat. Braun was 1-for-3 for the game before exiting in the 7th inning. He has been out of the lineup since June 10th with a thumb injury.

Milwaukee will try for the sweep of the Reds this afternoon. Johnny Hellweg (0-2, 12.79 ERA) goes for Milwaukee against Mike Leake (7-4, 2.73 ERA) of the Reds. First pitch is 1:10 at Miller Park.
